Slightly prettier error message etc. Change-Id: I9af4ec6ce337c65b5ca0820dc15a4e084832c529 Reviewed-on: https://cl.tvl.fyi/c/depot/+/3542 Tested-by: BuildkiteCI Reviewed-by: tazjin <mail@tazj.in>
2021-09-14 r/2856 feat(nix/tag): add functions for querying a tag's name and valuesterni1-1/+14
Both are just trivial wrappers around assertIsTag to make these lookups more ergonomic. This also allows us to demote assertIsTag to an implemtation detail.

2021-01-30 r/2166 feat(nix): add nix.tag, a way of discriminating via tagged unionsProfpatsch2-0/+237
Introduces the concept of a “tag”, a single-keyed attrset which annotates a nix value with a name. This can be used to implement tagged unions (by implying the list of possible tags is well-known), which has some overlap with how `nix.yants` does it. However, the more fascinating use-case is in concert with a so-called discriminator, `match` and hylomorphisms. The discriminator can take a nix value, and add tags to it based on some predicate. With `match`, we can then use that information to convert the discriminated values again. With `hylo`, we can combine both the “constructive” discriminator step with the “destructive” match step to recursively walk over a nix data structure (based on a description of how to recurse, e.g. through attrset values or list values), and then apply a transformation in one go.
